LONDON (AP) Arsenal defender Gabriel Paulista has been given a one-match ban by the English Football Association after admitting a charge of improper conduct.
The 24-year-old Gabriel was sent off during the Gunners' 2-0 league defeat at Chelsea following an altercation with striker Diego Costa.
Arsenal successfully appealed that dismissal which carried a three-match suspension.
However the FA suspended the Brazilian following his refusal to leave the field immediately after his red card. He will now miss Arsenal's trip to Leicester on Saturday.
